I tried to open mate terminal, xterm to see if there was something like ifconfig and every time I tried opening a terminal the screen went blank for a few seconds then two identical error message boxes appeared on the top right and left of the desktop. It said something like: Vboxclient failed to connect to virtualbox kernal service rc=VERR_Fl...

Also sometimes a small window would appear asking about classic or purity station - maybe a tool tip explaining what this would help for a new live user...seems like it added flavor to desktop config...

Since I couldn't get wifi and could not open a terminal I decided to bail and reboot to my usual OS. I couldn't find a shutdown reboot option in the menus (I'm sure I must of missed it). So I did ALT-F2 and that worked and I reboot with that command window.

I'm getting to like the Linux distros I try less and less as they "improve" with new versions. Wanted to try GhostBSD but wifi and getting a terminal is obviously important. the md5 hash checks OK.

Laptop Wifi and Terminal Windows

Yea you just put the finger on a problem that I have to fix before the next release. I have to much weird script that is interfering with the shell, that cause the problem in the terminal. Not much you can do right now, but I will fix that.
